The myc oncogene has been the subject of intense research of late because of its involvement in viral and non-viral carcinogenesis in the avian, murine, feline and human systems. From data obtained in each system it appears that myc, which has been highly conserved through evolution, has a key role in the control of cell proliferation. However, the precise function of this gene remains obscure. This review attempts to summarize data obtained in the various systems in order to compare sometimes conflicting results.
由于myc癌基因参与禽类、鼠类、猫科动物和人类系统中的病毒和非病毒致癌过程，它近来一直是深入研究的对象。从在每个系统中获得的数据来看，似乎在进化过程中高度保守的myc在细胞增殖控制中起关键作用。然而，这个基因的确切功能仍然不清楚。这篇综述试图总结在各种系统中获得的数据，以便比较有时相互矛盾的结果。
